AIM:To investigate whether nimesulide a selective cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) inhibitor and piroxicam (an inhibitor of COX-1) protect the rat hearts against oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion or hydroxyl free radical. METHODS: Cardiac contractility, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were analyzed by the Langendorff method in isolated rat hearts. Production of 6-Keto-PGF1?, a marker of COX activity, was measured in isolated rat hearts. RESULTS: Rat hearts were exposed to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), pyrogallol (which produced superoxide anion) or Vit C+Fe2+ (which produced hydroxyl free radical) for 10 min followed by reperfusion for 30 min. H2O2 decreased cardiac contractility and increased LDH release, which was inhibited by nimesulide (3 mg/kg) LVDP 72%?10% vs 61%?11%, LDH (5.5?2.5)U/L vs (8.0?2.1)U/L, P

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of DPP-4 inhibitors in the treatment of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus and its effect on blood pressure and body weight.Methods A total of 100 newly diagnosed elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled in this study from July 2013 to June 2015 in this hospital.They were divided into observation group and control group(n=50).The control group was treated with placebo on the basis of diet control and exercise.The observation group was treated with sitagliptin on the basis of diet control and exercise.Fasting plasma glucose(FPG),2 h postprandial blood glucose(2 h PG) and glycated albumin (GA) were measured before and after treatment,and the incidence rate of hypoglycemia,blood pressure,body weight and other adverse reactions were monitored.Results After treatment,two groups of patients,condition were significantly improved,FPG,2 h PG,GA changes in observation group were significantly better than that of control group,the difference were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in blood pressure,body weight and body mass index before and after treatment,and also between the two groups(P＞0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group and the control group were 10.0％ and 8.0％,The incidence of adverse reactions in the two groups was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion The clinical efficacy of DPP-4 inhibitor siglitazide in the treatment of newly diagnosed elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is good,and it is very useful in the treatment of these patients.

At present ,the mechanism of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 virus causing human infection or death is still not fully clear .In order to better understand the pathogenesis of the disease ,the rhesus macaques were infected with H5N1 virus (AF148678/ACGoose/Guangdong/11961H5N1) .We analyzed the clinical symptoms ,characteristics of the virus invades body ,pathological changes ,and immune response to discuss the pathogenesis of viral pneumonia induced by H 5N1 virus infection from the early time to the recovery time .The rhesus macaques were infected with H5N1 virus through nasal .Clinical signs were assessed daily ,and major organs and blood were collected for detection of blood routine analysis ,viruses were isola-ted and titrated from organs ,and pathologic and immunohistochemical were also conducted .As a result ,the rhesus macaques in-fected with H5N1 virus experienced fever ,dyspnea ,and anorexia .The respiratory tract was the major target of the virus and the virus could not replicate in organs outside the respiratory tract .Positive staining cells by immunohistochemistry were bronchial epithelial cells and alveolar macrophages .Rhesus macaques experienced temporary severe pneumonia after 1-3 days ,mainly be-cause of neutrophils infiltration ;gradual recovery 6 days later ,mainly with macrophage infiltration ;lung tissue presented recov-ery state after 14 days ,mainly with T lymphocytes infiltration .Finally ,we concluded that the predilection of the H 5N1 virus to infect the lower airway suggests that it may be a limiting factor in human-to-human transmissibility of the H5N1 virus .The pathogenesis may include virus invasion ,replication and immune injury .

This study aimed to examine the preparation of cationic lipid microbubble (CLM), and evaluate its physical and chemical properties and toxicity, measure the gene transfection efficiency by ultrasound triggered microbobble destruction (UTMD) in combination with CLM. The CLM was prepared by the method of the thin film hydration, and its morphology was observed under the electron microscopy at 1st, 3rd, 7th, 10th, and 14th day after preparation, respectively. The size, Zeta potential and stability of CLM were tested. The acute toxicity of CLM was assessed. The green fluorescent protein gene (EGFP) transfection efficiency was evaluated. The experiment grouping was as follows: naked plasmid group (P group), ultrasonic irradiation plus naked plasmid group (P-US group), naked plasmid plus CLM group (P-CLM group), naked plasmid plus ultrasound and CLM group (UTMD group). The expression of EGFP was detected by fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry. The results showed that CLMs were spherical in shape, with the similar size and good distribution degree under the light and electron microscopies. The size of CLMs was varied from 250.4±88.3 to 399.0±99.8 nm and the Zeta potential of CLMs from 18.80±4.97 to 20.1±3.1 mV. The EGFP expression was the strongest in the UTMD group, followed by the P-CLM group, P-US group and P group. Flow cytometry results were consistent with those of fluorescent microscopy. The transfection efficiency was substantially increased in the P-US group, P-CLM group and UTMD group as compared with that in the P group, almost 7 times, 10 times and 30 times higher than that in the P group respectively. It is suggested that CLMs prepared by the method of thin film hydration are uniform in diameter, and proved non-toxic. UTMD combined with CLM can significantly increase the transfection efficiency of EGFP to targeted cells.

Objective To assess the value of quantitative color Doppler sonography in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods The right renal in 21 patients with SLE and 22 normal subjects were examined with Philips IU22 ultrasonic diagnostic device. Resistence index (RI) of interlobar artery and interlobular artery were measured with color Doppler sonography, vascularity index (VI), flow index (FI) and vascularization flow index (VFI) which reflecting the renal cortical blood flow were calculated with quantitated analysis software. All the parameters between two groups were compared and analyzed. Results The color signals of renal cortical blood flow in patients with SLE were inferior to those of the normal group, especially in the area near the edge of renal. No statistical difference of RI was found between the two groups (P>0.05), while VI, FI and VFI in SLE group were significantly lower than those of the normal group (VI, VFI, P<0.01, FI, P=0.01). Conclusion Color Doppler sonography combined with blood flow quantitative technique provide a helpful, sensitive and convenient tool to detecte the renal changes in SLE patients.

Objective To explore the effect of quality control circle (QCC) on health education in stroke rehabilitation nursing. Methods Such activities were conducted in the VIP ward of neurological rehabilitation in our hospital as: theme selecting, activity planning, status mastering, cause analyzing, countermeasures formulating and implementing, etc., in accordance with QCC theory from January to April, 2014. Results The satisfaction of stroke patients to health education rose from 80.1% to 91.1% (P<0.001), and the dissatisfaction to guidance of activities of daily living and prevention of complications decreased significantly (P<0.05) after the implementation of QCC program. All the circle members benefited from the improvement of QCC technique, team work, professional knowledge, communication and coordination, activity confidence, duty and honor. Conclusion Carrying out the QCC activities can play a positive role on health education in stroke rehabilitation nursing.

Objective To observe the safety and efficacy of different periprocedural anticoagulation strategies in patients undergoing catheter ablation of atrial ifbrillation. Methods Eighty-five patients aged over 75 undergoing catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation from Jul 2011 to Nov 2013 were enrolled. They all took warfarin and transesophageal echocardiograms were performed to rule out left atrium appendage thrombus before ablation. They were divided into 3 groups. In Group 1 (30 cases), warfarin was stopped and bridged with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) 3 days before procedure and LMWH bridging followed by warfarin alone after procedure. In Group 2 (32 cases), warfarin was continued during periprocedural period. In Group 3 (23 cases), Dabigatran or Rivaroxaban alone was used 4 hours after procedure respectively. Unfractionated heparin was used during procedure in all three groups. These three anticoagulation strategies were compared in bleeding, embolism events and other complications during 3-month follow-up. Results In Group 1, there were 1 new-onset ischemic stroke during hospitalization, 7 lower extremity hematomas, 1 subdural hemorrhage during 3-month follow-up and 6 minor bleeding events. In Group 2, there were 4 lower extremity hematomas and 4 minor bleeding events during 3-month follow-up. As for Group 3, only 2 lower extremity hematomas during hospitalization was observed in each without any minor bleeding events during follow-up. Conclusions Catheter ablation in elderly atrial ifbrillation patients was safe and effective in general. Compared with traditional anticoagulation strategy, continuing warfarin or novel oral anticoagulants could reduce bleeding complications without increasing thromboembolism risk.

Purpose: We aimed to identify effectiveness-associated indicators and evaluate the optimal tumor reduction rate (TRR) after two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with invasive breast cancer. Methods: This retrospective case-control study included patients who underwent at least four cycles of NAC at the Department of Breast Surgery between February 2013 and February 2020. A regression nomogram model for predicting pathological responses was constructed based on potential indicators. Results: A total of 784 patients were included, of whom 170 (21.68%) reported pathological complete response (pCR) after NAC and 614 (78.32%) had residual invasive tumors. The clinical T stage, clinical N stage, molecular subtype, and TRR were identified as independent predictors of pCR. Patients with a TRR > 35% were more likely to achieve pCR (odds ratio, 5.396; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.299–8.825). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted using the probability value, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.892 (95% CI, 0.863–0.922). Conclusion TRR > 35% is predictive of pCR after two cycles of NAC, and an early evaluation model using a nomogram based on five indicators, age, clinical T stage, clinical N stage, molecular subtype, and TRR, is applicable in patients with invasive breast cancer.
